Saw part of Moore's interview on Nightline with Ted Koppel, far, far more interesting.

Had to laugh though because MM tried very hard to get Koppel to agree with him at times and Koppel would just look at him and either smile or change the subject.

It was interesting when Koppel talked about Kerry speaking French and how that wouldn't change Chiraq's opinion of the US and Moore laughed and said it would.

Liked how Koppel and Moore talked about how the French and Germans wouldn't enter the war.

One of the few things I agree with Moore on, is we are in a very bad mess. We went in with no plan, no help is coming, the Iraqis as much as W. wants us to believe want us there don't, you can't form a true free society with another country's rifle in your face.

Liked his analogy of how the 13 colonies would have reacted if the French had invaded us before the revolution and said, "we are here to free you." It is true revolution and democracy have to come from the people within and not from an invading country, it just becomes a puppet government in the eyes of the people invaded.

Moore isn't bad he just takes things to the extreme and gets carried away with himself.
